I am loving all he blocks, thank you for the log cabin block, it looks great. Cyclone block is cool. I have never worked with batiks, just because they are a bit pricey. I love the batik/black combo in all the batik blocks. The sports block is really cool too. I want to see that finished quilt, the sports quilt.
I hope to to get back in the sewing room this weekend. My family had a really rough week. My aunt's brother was killed, girlfriend shot him. My show finished, which was fun and I have a new computer. Now back to planning some new blocks.

I have the blue screen of death on my computer. Not something that was in the budget. But I had a life before the computer, I will have a life without it, Glad you got a new one.
Happy planning and then even happier sewing!

Just an fyi for anyone wanting to mail their completed blocks to me early, you can go ahead and do so as long as they arrive between the 19th and the 30th of September. As always, please let me know in advance that you are shipping so I can make arrangements if I'm going to be out for the day. Thank you!
